I finally got around to cleaning my bow lockers and found a North Sails G3 Gennaker. The sail looks to be in good condition but I have some questions about rigging. I’ve never flown a spinnaker/gennaker so any advice you all have is appreciated. I’m not racing but do want to sail a bit faster.

Should the tack remain at the centerline or is there a noticeable benefit in being able to adjust the tack to windward/leeward? Would tacking to the windward bow be a good option on a deep run or is that too far over?

From what I read, being able to adjust the tack vertically can help the sail fly more to windward or leeward depending on tension. Is there a benefit to having horizontal and vertical adjustments to the tack or is only one needed?

North Sails lists the gennaker AWA at 80-120 degrees. Do vertical/horizontal adjustments increase that range allowing more downwind/upwind performance or is flying the genoa outside that range still better?

Where is a good place for the stern blocks? I assume a barber hauler would work. Is the toe rail strong enough or is the stern cleat a better option?

What else should I know?

I’m looking to get a good starting point and would like to avoid an overly complicated setup. Obviously it’ll take some experimenting to figure out what works best for my boat and me.
